Dragon Ball Mobile Phone games.

Post by Xeogran » Sat Nov 09, 2013 4:54 am

I have seen a lot of screenshots of some nice looking DBZ Mobile games in Japan, and I'd love to know where you can get them. These are however pretty old and the mobile phone market has been changing drastically since then.

Here are the games I am referring to:

Has anyone ever heard of them?

Oh wow. So strange these escaped Kanzenshuu's radar. I hope they're up for emulation anywhere...

Those are feature phone games likely running on Java or some similar equivalent. Due to the nature of that hardware, I wouldn't be surprised if those games are lost forever even if you did track down the right phones and service provider.

I find it incredible myself, but there are indeed initial signs after over a decade as part of the Keitai game preservation movement: 2.5 titles of the Dragon Ball games have been successfully preserved (apparently back in September 2024). I'm very curious!
